Photos With A Creepy Backstory

That Amy Bradley story though

reminds myself to never go on a cruise

 

[kingwhopper]

Initially, Dr. Wertham had some concerns about whether Fish was lying to him, especially when he told the psychiatrist that he had been sticking needles into his body for years in the area between the rectum and the scrotum: "He told of doing it to other people too, especially children. At first, he said, he had only stuck these needles in and pulled them out again. Then he had stuck others in so far that he was unable to get them out, and they stayed there." The doctor had him X-rayed and sure enough, there were at least 29 needles in his pelvic region.

About the age of 55, Fish started to experience hallucinations and delusions. "He had visions of Christ and His angels... he began to be engrossed in religious speculations about purging himself of iniquities and sins, atonement by physical suffering and self-torture, human sacrifices... He would go on endlessly with quotations from the Bible all mixed up with his own sentences, such as 'Happy is he that taketh Thy little ones and dasheth their heads against the stones."

Fish believed that God had ordered him to torment and castrate little boys. He had actually done so a number of times.

Wertham was amazed as Fish described the horrible cannibalism of Billy Gaffney's body. "His state of mind while he described these things in minute detail was a peculiar mixture. He spoke in a matter-of-fact way, like a housewife describing her favorite methods of cooking... But at times his voice and facial expression indicated a kind of satisfaction and ecstatic thrill. I said to myself: However you define the medical and legal borders of sanity, this certainly is beyond that border."

The Most Beautiful Suicide

On May Day, just after leaving her fiancé, 23-year-old Evelyn McHale wrote a note. ‘He is much better off without me … I wouldn’t make a good wife for anybody,’ … Then she crossed it out. She went to the observation platform of the Empire State Building. Through the mist she gazed at the street, 86 floors below. Then she jumped. In her desperate determination she leaped clear of the setbacks and hit a United Nations limousine parked at the curb. Across the street photography student Robert Wiles heard an explosive crash. Just four minutes after Evelyn McHale’s death Wiles got this picture of death’s violence and its composure. The serenity of McHale’s body amidst the crumpled wreckage it caused is astounding. Years later, Andy Warhol appropriated Wiles’ photography for a print called Suicide (Fallen Body).

Walter Jackson Freeman II was an American doctor and member of the American Psychiatric Association. Although he is the only one on our list who hasn’t performed a direct criminal practice on his patients, he can be blamed for harming as many as 3,400 people by using a very controversial and primitive medical technique: the lobotomy.

His operations were performed by inserting a metal pick into the corner of each eye socket, moving it back and forth, and thereby severing the connections to the pre-frontal cortex in the frontal lobes of the brain.
This method did not require a neurosurgeon and could be performed outside of an operating room without the use of anesthesia. Freeman actually used his personal van as a surgery room, which he called the “lobotomobile”.

Dr. Freeman was finally banned from performing surgery after the death of some of his patients from brain hemorrhage.

Herman Webster Mudgett (a.k.a. Dr. Henry Howard Holmes) was a graduate of Michigan Medical School and one of the first recorded American serial killers. But while most serial killers lurk in dark corners, Holmes went as far as opening a hotel which he had designed and built with murder in mind.

After completing his “house of terrors” – complete with pits of acid, bedrooms fitted with gas lines, secret chutes and even a stretching rack – Holmes selected mainly female victims among his employees as well as hotel guests.

After being tortured to death, the victim`s bodies were dropped to the basement where Holmes performed a meticulous dissection procedure, stripping them of flesh and crafting them into skeleton models.
Even though the verified number of victims is 27, police commented that some of the bodies in the basement were so badly dismembered and decomposed that it was difficult to tell how many bodies there actually were.

Some suggest that more than 200 people found their end in Holmes’ hotel.

The medical name for the drug is desomorphine.
It is made at home by acquiring codeine, sold over the counter for headaches, and cooking it with paint thinner, gasoline, hydrochloric acid, iodine and the red phosphorous from matchbox strike pads.

The resulting liquid is injected into a vein. The high from this drug lasts 90 minutes to two hours, and it takes about a half-hour to make the drug. So a krokodil addict does little other than get the ingredients and cook up the drug.

Krokodil gets its name from the fact that the caustic drug causes an addict's skin to become green, scaly and bumpy like a crocodile's.
If the drug misses a vein and is injected into flesh, that flesh will develop abscesses. It is common for addicts to develop gangrene and require amputations.

The flesh on some body parts affected by krokodil injections will rot off completely, leaving bare bone.

Judith Dull, an aspiring model, was murdered by “Glamour Girl Killer” Harvey Glatman. Glatman moved to Los Angeles, where he posed as a professional photographer
to lure girls into his hotel room with the promise of work.
There, he tied them up, photographed them, and eventually killed them and dumped their bodies.
Judith, 19 and divorced, showed up at Glatman’s under the premise that she would pose for a crime fiction magazine.

Shirley Ann Bridgeford, 24, met Glatman using a dating service called the Patty Sullivan Lonely Hearts Club.
Glatman, using the name George Williams, picked Bridgeford up and told her that instead of going dancing as they’d planned,
he’d take her on a drive around the countryside. Once at a remote spot, Glatman ordered Bridgeford out of the car and told her to undress.
He then raped, photographed and humiliated her before strangling her to death, taking a few more pictures, and leaving her body.

Bob Berdella, a serial killer who preferred male victims, kept 23-year-old Todd Stoops for two months, torturing him daily with electric shocks, anal penetration and other abuse.
Berdella didn’t intentionally murder Stoops; the young man died as a result of the countless injuries inflicted by his assailant.
After repeated rape, Stoops developed a rectal rupture and was bleeding profusely. Berdella treated him with animal antibiotics and injected Drano into his eyes.

Another of Berdella’s victims, Larry Pearson, was a male prostitute.
He lived as Berdella’s sex slave for about six weeks and was more cooperative than the others. When he finally did try to escape, Berdella killed him.

[Mr. Negative]

(I was scrolling up. TOTALLY unprepared for the look of neglect and madness here. I didn't even know what I was looking at until my brain hooked it all together)

*tried to imagine how that felt, trying to live with feeling that for your entire life*

dudes eyes scared the fukk out of me. only thing that scared me worse on this site was Richard Ramirez' mugshot.

This pic brought back some bad childhood memories that I really don't need to be thinking about.

Because humanity itself is the scum of the fukking earth.




But THIS fukked me up!!!!!

I'm honestly dreading going to sleep right now.

seriously.

The GI standing next to the photographer shot the boy after the photo was taken. This happened during the My Lai massacre in the Vietnam War where between 347 and 504 unarmed civilians in South Vietnam on March 16, 1968 were massacred. It was committed by U.S. Army soldiers from the Company C of the 1st Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, 11th Brigade of the 23rd (Americal) Infantry Division. Victims included men, women, children, and infants. Some of the women were gang-raped and their bodies mutilated. Twenty-six soldiers were charged with criminal offenses, but only Lieutenant William Calley Jr., a platoon leader in C Company, was convicted. Found guilty of killing 22 villagers, he was originally given a life sentence, but served only three and a half years under house arrest.

That white privilege

This picture got me. That would forever haunt me if I saw a dying child and did nothing to help, but instead just took a picture and left.

[Heretic]

they couldn't.




All they could do was watch, keep her company and comfort her as best they could.

Apparently, the people watching her began to break emotionally, and SHE comforted THEM.

I know about the rescue workers but I meant mainly in terms of the photographer, dude got there like 3 hours before she died and his excuse for taking the pics was he wanted to convey helplessness. That's bs in itself.

As fukked up most of these stories were....

I couldn't stop reading

More pictures of victims before Berdella killed them.

Victims of Glatman

If you don’t know the story, Short—dubbed “Black Dahlia” by the press for her rumored penchant for sheer black clothes and for a movie at that time—was found sliced clean in half at the waist by a mother walking her child in an L.A. neighborhood just before 11 a.m. on January 15, 1947.

The body was just a few feet from the sidewalk and posed in the grass in such a way that the woman reportedly thought it was a mannequin at first.
Despite the extensive mutilation and cuts on the body, there wasn’t a drop of blood at the scene, indicating Short had been killed elsewhere.

In 1948 the body of a man was found on Somerton beach in Adelaide, Australia. The man was never identified. Police found a suitcase which they believed was his containing clothing in which all but three items had their name tags removed.
The name on the remaining items pointed them to a man who was later identified as not being the dead man. A small note in the man’s pocket said “taman shud” which is the last line of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. It had been cut from a book.

A doctor seeing the note on the TV contacted police to say that the book had appeared in the backseat of his unlocked car. It was the copy that had had the note removed. In the back of the book were coded markings which have not been able to be deciphered as yet:

MRGOABABD
MTBIMPANETP
MLIABOAIAQC
ITTMTSAMSTGABA

A name in the front of the book led police to a woman who said she had given it to a man named Boxall during the Second World War. Upon seeing a plaster cast of the dead man she identified him as Boxall.
This appeared to solve the mystery of who the man was, until Boxall was discovered alive with his copy of the book undamaged. Coincidentally the woman who identified the man lived in Glenelg – the last town visited by the dead man before he travelled by bus to his final destination.
The woman asked police not to record her name as she was married and wanted to avoid scandal – they foolishly complied and her identity is now also unknown.
This is considered to be one of Australia’s most profound mysteries.

The BaalBeck Block
A huge block, considered the largest hewn stone in the world, still sits where it was cut almost 2,000 years ago. Called the "Stone of the Pregnant Woman", it is 21.5m x 4.8m x 4.2meters in size and weighs an estimated 1,000 tons. Not even our biggest and best cranes could lift this stone block, so how on earth was it moved to its present position?

Dropa Stones or more accurately the Dropa Discs were found in the summer of 1938, when a Chinese archaeological expedition was mapping a series of interlocking caves in a part of the Himilayan Mountains called the Baian Kara Ula Mountains, between the border that divides China and Tibet. The expedition was being led by a Dr. Chi Pu Tei, when they stumbled across a remarkable find. In some of the caves, there were neat lines of graves, and buried in these graves were the remains of a strange people. Averaging about 4 feet in height, they had long spindly limbs and round, large oversized heads.

The researchers speculated that they were the remains of apes, but apes are hardly known for burying their dead. More recently it has been suggested that these are the remains of aliens, grey type beings, as we shall see why. As well in other caves there were discovered cave drawings, pictograms of the heavens.
The drawings have been carbon dated as being between 10 and 12 thousand years old (reportedly). Then a researcher stumbled across a strange, hand crafted stone disc.

In 2003, a tiny humanoid skeleton was found in near a churchyard in a Chilean ghost town. Barely six inches long, with a terribly malformed skull, the skeleton (nicknamed Ata) was initially thought to be some kind of alien. The specimen was turned over to Stanford University, where a battery of experts studied it. DNA evidence quickly revealed Ata was in fact a human boy, having died within the last few decades. However, the skeleton remains quite mysterious; it seems to show development consistent with a six year old, and only has 10 ribs to the typical human 12. Researchers believe that Ata was either a very tiny dwarf, or that he suffered a disorder like progeria, which caused him to age rapidly while still in the womb. Others posit that Ata was merely stillborn or aborted (the force of which could have distorted the body). Further tests may reveal Ata’s ultimate fate.

Aokigahara, Suicide forest in Japan

Around a 100 people were horribly burned alive this tragic night. It clearly demonstrates how the when the right amount of combustible material and oxygen are mixed how quick a fire can consume a building.You can actually hear people screaming as they're being burned alive

Newly wed couple, Christina and Gabe watson, came to Australia (From America) for a honeymoon - the husband was seen giving her a bearhug while she flailed, then left her at the
bottom of the ocean before climbing on board and alerting that she needed help.

It's believed (however he denies) that he turned off her air regulator and held her until she became unconscious. The photo revealed Tina lying on the ocean floor, something that did not come to light until a couple of weeks later when the pictures were developed.


He's since married someone else who apparently looks just like Tina.

self immolation of a buddhist monk in 1963. it is said he didn't move or make a sound.

last words - "Before closing my eyes and moving towards the vision of the Buddha, I respectfully plead to President Ngo Dinh Diem to take a mind of compassion towards the people of the nation and implement religious equality to maintain the strength of the homeland eternally. I call the venerables, reverends, members of the sangha and the lay Buddhists to organise in solidarity to make sacrifices to protect Buddhism."

These are real Disneyland costumes from back when they spent less money on making the characters look accurate and more on porn dungeons. Mickey here looks like big chunks of flesh have been ripped off his face, presumably after catching Pluto on a bad day, and Minnie's tragic expression indicates that the domestic situation at the Mouse household wasn't all that great back then.
